[76] In F. Gräter's _Idunna und Hermode, eine Alterthumszeitung_, Breslau, 1812, pp. 191-92, Gräter gives under the heading, "Die Bildergallerie des Rheins." thirty well-known German sagas. The twenty-seventh is "Der Lureley: Ein Gegenstück zu der Fabel von der Echo." It is the version of Vogt. [77] Aside from the above, some of the less important authors of lyrics, ballads, dramas, novels, etc., on the Lorelei-theme are: J. Bartholdi, H. Bender, H. Berg, J. P. Berger, A. H. Bernard, G. Conrad, C. Doll, L. Elchrodt, O. Fiebach, Fr. Förster, W. Fournier, G. Freudenberg, W. Freudenberg, W. Genth, K. Geib, H. Grieben, H. Grüneberg, G. Gurski, Henriette Heinze-Berg, A. Henniger, H. Hersch, Mary Koch, Wilhelmine Lorenz, I. Mappes, W. Molitor, Fr. Mücke, O. W. Notzsch, Luise Otto, E. Rüffer, Max Schaffroth, Luise Frelin von Sell, E. A. W. Siboni, H. Steinheuer, Adelheid von Stolterfoth, A. Storm, W. von Waldbrühl, L. Werft, and others even more obscure than these. [78] In Menco Stern's _Geschichten vom Rhein_, the story is told so as to connect the legend of the Lorelei with the treasures of the _Nibelungenlied_. In this way we have gold in the mountain, wine around it, a beautiful woman on it--what more could mortal wish? Sympathy! And this the Lorelei gives him in the echo. In reply to an inquiry, Mr. Stern very kindly wrote as follows: "The facts given in my _Geschichten vom Rhein_ are all well known to German students; and especially those mentioned in my chapter 'Lorelay' can bo verified in the book: _Der Rhein_ von Philipp F. W. Oertel (W. O. v. Horn) who was, I think, the greatest authority on the subject of the Rhine." Oertel is not an authority. In Eduard-Prokosch's _German for Beginners_, the version of Schreiber was used, as is evident from the lines spoken by the Lorelei to her Father: Vater, Vater, geschwind, geschwind. Die weissen Rosse schick' deinem Kind, Es will reiten auf Wogen und Wind. These verses are worked into a large number of the ballads, and since they are Schreiber's own material, his saga must have had great general influence. [79] There would be no point in listing all of the books on the legends of the Rhine that treat the story of the Lorelei. Three, however, are important, since it is interesting to see how their compilers were not satisfied with one version of the story, but included, as becomes evident on reading them, the versions of Brentano, Schreiber, Loeben, and Heine: _Der Rhein: Geschichten und Sagen_, by W. O. von Horn, Stuttgart, 1866, pp. 207-11; _Legends of the Rhine_, by H. A. Guerber, New York, 1907, pp: 199-206; _Eine Sammlung von Rhein-Sagen_, by A. Hermann Bernard, Wiesbaden, no year, pp. 225-37.
